I have an HP Officejet 8600 Plus. With the recent security warnings about HP Printers and the need to update their firmware, I downloaded the most current firmware for this printer from https://support.hp.com/us-en/drivers/selfservice/closure/hp-officejet-pro-8600-plus-e-all-in-one-pri...

 

The HP Printer Update download site shows a file name of OJP8600_N911g-n_2011A.exe, implying a version of 2011A

 

The HP Printer Update program however claims the update is "Not applicable". For security reasons, is this the correct "trustworthy" response from the program, given what appears to be version number differences? 

 

The current firmware for that printer seems to be dated to back in Oct 2020...is the OfficeJet Pro 8600 vulnerable to the CVE's mentioned for HP OfficeJet printers?

This is a screenshot of my HP Printer Update program, with the serial number redacted

Im not sure this will help, but i had some issues with fw updates before trying them to update thru network. 
It worth to try it using USB 

Just a electronics enthusiast trying to fix everything.
